really is kind of a small city. you see rows and rows of these small, white buildings with red roofs that are two stories. that s where the afghans are sleeping and staying. there are 250 of them, and it s a 60,000-acre fort, so it really is huge. the scale of it, i was really surprised by. and there are just children everywhere. nearly half of the roughly 13,000 people there are children. soy saw them running around, coloring, playing outside on playing kickball, soccer, riding on their bikes, staying in classrooms. it so really had a lot of energy. now, emily, were you given free rein to visit the entire base, areas where they re being housed, or just kind of a tour area? reporter: yeah, we were absolutely not given free rein.
